Today speed is one of the main criteria to beat the competition. I handpicked some useful productivity apps, that might come in handy in your developer workflow.
These include anything you might need from working with images, animations, and fonts, to creating content for social media. Each tool will include a direct link, a description as well as an image preview.
1. Lorem Picsum

2. Remove.bg

3. PFPmaker
PFPMaker generates professional profile pics from any photo. It uses background removal AI, beautifies your photo, and generates dozens of profile pic variations automatically.
